The present invention relates to a fused heterocyclic compound having an RORγt inhibitory action, a medicament containing the compound, and the like.
Th17 cell and inflammatory cytokine (IL-17A, IL-17F and the like) produced thereby cause various autoimmune disease such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis or psoriasis, and a decrease in QOL as a severe etiology cell and factor accompanying enhancement of a systemic new immune response. However, the existing therapeutic drugs show only limited effects, and therefore, the earliest possible development of a novel therapeutic drug has been desired.
Involvement of T cells, inter alia, Th17 cell and inflammatory cytokines (IL-17A, IL-17F and the like) produced thereby, in the pathology of these autoimmune disease has been drawing attention in recent years.
Moreover, it has been recently clarified that a Retinoid-related Orphan Receptor (ROR) γt, which is one of the orphan nuclear receptors, plays an important role in the differentiation of Th17 cells and production of IL-17A/IL-17F. That is, it has been reported that RORγt is mainly expressed in Th17 cells and functions as a transcription factor of IL-17A and IL-17F, as well as a master regulator of Th17 cell differentiation (non-patent documents 1 and 2).
Therefore, a medicament that inhibits the action of RORγt is expected to show a treatment effect on various autoimmune disease by suppressing differentiation and activation of Th17 cells.

For combined use, the administration time of the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug is not restricted, and the compound of the present invention or the concomitant drug can be administered to an administration subject simultaneously, or may be administered at different times. The dosage of the concomitant drug may be determined according to the dose clinically used, and can be appropriately selected depending on an administration subject, administration route, disease, combination and the like.
The administration form of the combined use is not particularly limited, and the compound of the present invention and a concomitant drug only need to be combined on administration. Examples of such administration mode include the following:
(1) administration of a single preparation obtained by simultaneously processing the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug, (2) simultaneous administration of two kinds of preparations of the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug, which have been separately produced, by the same administration route, (3) administration of two kinds of preparations of the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug, which have been separately produced, by the same administration route in a staggered manner, (4) simultaneous administration of two kinds of preparations of the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug, which have been separately produced, by different administration routes, (5) administration of two kinds of preparations of the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug, which have been separately produced, by different administration routes in a staggered manner (e.g., administration in the order of the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug, or in the reverse order) and the like.
The mixing ratio of the compound of the present invention and a concomitant drug in the combination agent of the present invention can be appropriately selected based on the subject of administration, administration route, disease and the like.
For example, while the content of the compound of the present invention in the combination agent of the present invention varies depending on the preparation form, it is generally about 0.01-100 wt %, preferably about 0.1-50 wt %, more preferably about 0.5-20 wt %, of the whole preparation.
The content of the concomitant drug in the combination agent of the present invention varies depending on the preparation form, and generally about 0.01 to 100% by weight, preferably about 0.1 to 50% by weight, further preferably about 0.5 to 20% by weight, of the entire preparation.
While the content of the additive such as a carrier and the like in the combination agent of the present invention varies depending on the form of a preparation, it is generally about 1 to 99.99% by weight, preferably about 10 to 90% by weight, based on the preparation.
When the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug are separately prepared, the same content may be adopted.
The dose of the combination agent varies depending on the kind of the compound of the present invention, administration route, symptom, age of patients and the like. For example, for oral administration to patients (body weight about 60 kg) with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), about 0.1 mg/kg body weight—about 30 mg/kg body weight, preferably about 1 mg/kg body weight-20 mg/kg body weight, of compound (I) or (I′) can be administered once to several portions (e.g., once to 3 times) per day.
The dose of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention as a sustained-release preparation varies depending on the kind and content of compound (I) or (I′), dosage form, period of sustained drug release, subject animal of administration (e.g., mammals such as mouse, rat, hamster, guinea pig, rabbit, cat, dog, bovine, horse, swine, sheep, monkey, human and the like), and administration object. For example, for application by parenteral administration, about 0.1 to about 100 mg of compound (I) or (I′) needs to be released from the administered preparation per 1 week.
Any amount of the concomitant drug can be adopted as long as the side effects do not cause a problem. The daily dosage in terms of the concomitant drug varies depending on the severity, age, sex, body weight, sensitivity difference of the subject, administration period, interval, and nature, pharmacology, kind of the pharmaceutical preparation, kind of effective ingredient, and the like, and not particularly restricted, and the amount of a drug is, in the case of oral administration for example, generally about 0.001 to 2000 mg, preferably about 0.01 to 500 mg, further preferably about 0.1 to 100 mg, per 1 kg of a mammal and this is generally administered once to 4-times (preferably, once to 3-times) divided in a day.
When the combination agent of the present invention is administered, the compound of the present invention and the concomitant drug can be administered simultaneously, or may be administered in a staggered manner. When administered at a time interval, the interval varies depending on the effective ingredient, dosage form and administration method, and, for example, when the concomitant drug is administered first, a method in which the compound of the present invention is administered within time range of from 1 minute to 3 days, preferably from 10 minutes to 1 day, more preferably from 15 minutes to 1 hour, after administration of the concomitant drug is an example.

1. Stimulation with Anti-CD3 Antibody and Collection of Colon Tissue
An anti-CD3 antibody (5 μg/500 μL/mouse, BioXcell) or saline (500 μL/mouse) was intraperitoneally administered to Balb/c mice (female, 8 weeks old). Three hours after the administration, the mice were anesthetized by ether inhalation, and euthanized by cervical spine fracture dislocation. Then, the mice underwent laparotomy, and colons were isolated. The obtained colons were washed with saline, and then, immersed in RNA stabilization buffer (RNAlater, QIAGEN) at 4° C. for 18 hours or longer. Meanwhile, a suspension of a compound in 0.5% methylcellulose was orally administered an hour before administration of anti-CD3 antibody.
2. RNA Extraction from Colon Tissue and RT-PCR
The colon tissues were retrieved from RNAlater, and immediately immersed in 5 mL of RLT buffer (RNeasy Mini Kit, QIAGEN). Then, the tissues were homogenized at room temperature. Total RNA was extracted from the homogenized solution in accordance with the protocol of RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN), and cDNA was prepared using high capacity RNA-to-cDNA Kit (Applied biosystems). mRNAs of various cytokines were detected by realtime-PCR (TaqMan PCR) using the obtained cDNA as a template. TaqMan universal master mixII (Applied biosystems) was used as PCR buffer, and TaqMan Gene Expression Assays (Applied biosystems): Mm00439619_m1 (IL-17A), Mm00801778 m1 (IFN-γ) and 43252341E (β-actin) were used for detection of each cytokine gene, respectively. The expression levels of each gene were shown as normalized values calculated using β-actin expression level.
3. Statistical Analysis
All the data were shown as mean values±SE. Statistical analyses were performed by Student's t test and William's test. It was found that there was a significant difference between two groups when P value is P<0.05 or P<0.025.
4. Result of Experiment
It was confirmed that mRNA expressions of IL-17A and IFN-γ in colon tissue were significantly enhanced by intraperitoneally administering an anti-CD3 antibody to Balb/c mice, compared with the saline-administered group. Regarding these increases of expression, the compound of Example 14 (30, 100 and 300 mg/kg, po) significantly suppressed IL-17A expression in a dose-dependent manner, and the inhibition rates were 10, 25 and 53%, respectively (
1. EAE (Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis) Sensitization
A killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis, H37Ra (DIFCO), was suspended at the concentration of 2 mg/mL in Freund Incomplete adjuvant (DIFCO), and 5 mg of MBP (Sigma) was dissolved in 1.25 mL of saline (Otsuka). These two solutions were mixed at the ratio of 1:1 using glass syringe with a three-way stopcock until emulsion was obtained. The emulsion was intracutaneously administered to the bottom of the right foot of Lewis rats (male, 7 weeks old) at 0.1 mL/rat.
2. Compound Administration
A suspension of the compound of Example 14 in 0.5% methylcellulose was orally administered twice a day from the day of sensitization at the dose of 30, 100 or 300 mg/kg. The last administration was performed on the 5th day after sensitization, and an autopsy was performed 4 hours after the last administration.
3. Analysis of IL-17A Expression
The autopsy was performed on the 5th day after the sensitization, and popliteal lymph nodes of the right leg were collected. The lymph nodes were immersed in RNA later (Applied Biosystems), stored at 4° C. overnight, and then, the lymph nodes were homogenized with a homogenizer in 1 mL of Isogen (Wako), and total RNA was purified. cDNA was synthesized by reverse transcription reaction using High Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit with RNase Inhibitor (Applied Biosystems). The synthesized cDNA was detected by PCR reaction using Taqman Gene Expression Master Mix (Applied Biosystems) and 7900HT Fast realtime PCR system (Applied Biosystems) (Stage 1: 50° C., 2 min, Stage 2: 95° C., 10 min, Stage 3: 95° C., 15 sec, 60° C., 1 min, 40 cycle).
